Will they have TP? That, to me, is a bigger issue. Also, even if they have it, will it feel like Charmin or the NYT (which is, of course, far more suitable for the job, even if it doesn’t feel right)?

My experience in China is to bring your own. Best to take baby wipes.

“Will they have TP? “
It depends on the location. I’ve seen both, but I would expect there to be TP. Some places only have a water hose to spray yourself. You wipe with your left hand, not your right.
This is why some countries cut off the right hand of thieves. You usually wipe yourself with your left hand and eat with your right hand. If you don’t have a hand, you have to do both with the left hand.

It's best to take your own. I think the lavatories at the Beijing airport had one large toilet paper dispenser outside of the stall, so you had to remember to take some before you went in. What I found amazing is they don't seem to want to flush the toilet paper, they throw it away instead. Hence, the otherwise modern and clean bathrooms smell a bit and they have to have a cleaning lady frequently enter the stalls and empty the waste paper baskets.
